Hmm.. Over the past few months (years, its almost seemed), of voyaging through
the "vapor", System 7.0 it seems, is sceduled to debut on May 13th.

At the time of this writing, (5-10-91), I havent heard much in the line of
hype from Apple. Hah, will the release date be bumped again, or will be the
"mother of a system" the Mac users want it to be?

Now then. Why bring this up in an Amiga conference you ask? For this reason:
System 7.0 availability for Amax and Amax II users. Right now, most Amax users
are plodding along with System 6.05 with a Finder.. No multifinder.

Being that Apple has been a little mean with their roms, not selling them
seperate and all,the whole boxed and shrinkwrapped future of ReadySoft's Amax
emulator looks a bit bleek at best.


So whats the deal? Whats the probability of System 7.0 being released for
Amax? Slim to none? Or am I just crazy..




Never trust a hippie..
